Temperature—What to Watch Out For
Changes in temperature can affect electrical characteristics. Therefore, the
operating temperature is a critical factor in performance. During a
measurement calibration, the temperature of the calibration devices must be
stable and within the range shown in
Table 2-1

a. The temperature range over which the calibration standards maintain performance to their specifications.
+20 °C to +26 °C
Storage

40 °C to +75 °C
Error-corrected range
b
b. The allowable network analyzer ambient temperature drift during measurement calibration and during mea-
surements when the network analyzer error correction is turned on. Also, the range over which the network
analyzer maintains its specified performance while correction is turned on.

1 °C of measurement calibration temperature
Relative humidity
Type tested, 0% to 95% at 40 °C, non-condensing
IMPORTANT! Avoid unnecessary handling of the devices during calibration
because your fingers act as a heat source and may increase the
temperature of the device.
